- Keep. on the basis of the sources--this is a truly niche catehory of authorship, and I'm willing to stretch our guidelines a little to include it. DGG ( talk ) 22:02, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

- Delete I'm sympathetic to DGG's vote, but after a thorough WP:BEFORE search, I have no idea how to flesh out this article based on the available sources. I've seen several different websites repeat the same one-liner about how his plays are the most produced in high schools across America. This could be true, but I can't verify it, and honestly I'm surprised how little is out there for someone with such a successful claim. There are a couple audio clips as well, but they are also promotional for his company. My delete vote is strong, but without prejudice. SportingFlyer talk 18:17, 21 April 2018 (UTC)
Although the current article does appear to fail the NBIO standard, given the few citations listed, there are sufficient reliable independent sources supporting the notability of this individual. I would like to do some work on this article to bring it up to Wikipedia's standards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RhondaLH ( talk • contribs) 20:35, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
